Notably REALTIME - prevents the timer stopping when you get hit, but also:
- Typing indicator
- Airtime tracking
- Kickstart accel
- No Contesting due to racecountdown
- Spectator data wipe
- Stronger preventative measure for possible finish line multi-hit events
It's been used interchangably as "this is a singleplayer gameplay context" and "This is a no cvar changing context". This addition repairs some behaviour which might have been inconsistent between netgame and netreplay.
Also reduces some of the dead time before Break The Capsules begins by cutting out the majority of POSITION!! and hiding the one measly bulb that would otherwise appear
- Implementation details:
- grandprixinfo.eventmode is the reference point
- All bots have spectator applied and removed at map start depending on eventmode, and I've done my best to guard against side effects of not removing them entirely
- You shouldn't turn off grandprixinfo.gp when turning on things like specialStage.active or bossinfo.boss when pursuing eventmode behaviour
- Probably needs to be integrated into XD_MAP for any future netplay support, is currently disabled.
- You technically don't have to assign a Capsules map to be the bonus and a Special Stage to be the special. A Capsules map can be assigned to a Special Stage too, and a Boss can be assigned to either of them.
- Special Stages are still just as incomplete as they were before.
- Break the Capsules has special behaviour.
- Timelimit starts at 20 seconds.
- Earn 10 seconds (plus a little extra cheaty time) every capsule you destroy.
- WIN + extra life if you bust all the capsules, COOL if you get some but run out of time, LOSE if you lose your bumper or run out of time without breaking a single capsule.
- Supposed to also give you rings, but ran into a LOT of difficulty with this and didn't want to commit half-baked stuff, so it'll be a later project.
Also:
- Fix a long standing bug where totalring was reset between maps, preventing the sum from adding up across GP rounds and depriving you of extra lives you were owed.
- Fix an issue where Break the Capsules record attack was KARTSPEED_HARD.
- Send timelimitintics in savegames, since it's handled seperately now.
- Fix allocating only enough for "MAPXX".
- Fix memory leak in M_StartTimeAttack.
- Use va instead of malloc + sprintf, strdup where needed.
Some of these pass gpath to va anyway so that should be
enough room.
- Play a sound on initial hitlag, since pops are now delayed
- Add hitlag visual to sides
- Add horizontal momentum based on:
- Deflection of the object damaging it
- Whatever its momentum was before destruction
- Fixes an issue where the card animation and the FINISH animation operating on two different timers, but using the same variable, would intefere with each other
- Also makes khud_fault use the same drawer, so it can benefit from interpolation
- exitcountdown is now used for both No Contest and regular exits
- Set in P_DoPlayerExit
- Handles sending XD_EXITLEVEL in P_Ticker
- player->exiting is now 0 or 1 (we can make it a bool or a new timer later)
- Fixes a longstanding bug where failing a GP round could restart multiple times
Also:
- Fix a possible waiting-in-the-wings issue where mapchanges would occour client-side in K_CheckBumpers
- Add `gptest` cheat - sets numlaps to 1 lap on mapload for quick but legitimate(ish) progression
- We had two ways of ending the intermission, but only one would actually be used, and it resulted in code duplication.
- Combine the two ways.
- Disable the reached-but-didn't-do-anything-before-now code path for setting endtic.
- Set gamemap after intermission, rather than before.
- Fixes a bug where the NO CONTESTed player wouldn't get cycled out on the 4th round, because it had already been incremented by G_GetNextMap.
- Make the vote screen a special NEXTMAP_VOTING constant, for sanity, and to make cv_advancemap handled all in one place.
- Along with the above, fixes a bug where changing cv_advancemap would only enable or disable the voting screen, not change the nextmap.
- Call G_EndGame in G_NextLevel, since they were never used seperately.
- Add Special Stage and marathonmode to K_CanChangeRules.
- The case where entries on the end of the `grabskins` list were invalid
- Double ++ for botskinlistpos meant any successful skin-rival placement also guaranteed an Eggrobo (default skin)
- Make timelimitintics handled a bit more like gamespeed, encore, frantic, etc - update on mapload/starttime, not during gameplay
- Use default setting if can't change rules - this is a surprise tool that will help us later
- Have it properly update when adjusting gametype from the menu
- Cleaned up SV_StartSinglePlayerServer to do this
- Remove CV_SAVE to prevent time limit bruh moments
- Instead of picking over numskins and adjust the number if it picks an already used skin, build and shuffle a list of allowed skins and pick over that instead.
- Fixes some issues with increased weighting towards the skins immediately after your rivals' skins.
- Use PR_RULESCRAMBLE instead of PR_UNDEFINED.
- Why am I doing it in this branch? I'm getting re-acquainted with how bots are handled between matches in advance of disabling them for bonus events without losing or corrupting data.
- Use `SpeedPad` to set the strength. Intended to be scaled like Trick Panels, so 1 for yellow, 2 for red, so on. Can use floating point.
- Use `SpeedPadAngle` to rotate the thrust direction. This is in the same system as map angles, so east is 0, north is 90, west is 180, and south is 270. Also accepts floating point.
- Speed Pad angle accounts for the flat alignment itself, as well.
- Like Sneaker and Trick Panels, the sector / line special are now deprecated.
- For .wad resources, if a map is called WADNAME:
- Everything up to the first full stop in the file name is substituted as the long lumpname (so WADNAME in RR_GREENHILLS.beta3.wad replaces map RR_GREENHILLS)
- Has (hacky) support for Zone Builder temporary files on Windows
- If WADNAME is passed to `-warp` (but NOT `-map` or `+map`) go to the most recent loaded WADNAME
- Requires everyone to customise their testing parameters to disable MSDOS 8.3 filenames
- For all resources:
- Jart added lumpname hashes for the first 8 characters. Use these in W_CheckNumForLongNamePwad and the map equivalent
